CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Corporate Social Responsibility

At MA Services Group, our commitment is built on three key focus areas: Our Community, Our People, and Our Planet. We have developed a strategy that support these key areas and considers the broader impact we have on society, the environment, and the economy.

This approach has driven us to form partnerships and take actions to support our communities, encourage healthier and more sustainable choices, and ensure that we give back as a business.

KEY FOCUS AREA

Our Community

To date we have supported our community by:

Supporting the LGBTQI+ community

  • Our staff wear pride uniforms to show our support of the LGBTQI+ community at events
  • Our team engages in and supports inclusion initiatives, through our involvement in events such as Wear it Purple Day, participation in the Pride March during the Midsumma Festival, and various other initiatives that foster a diverse and inclusive space.

Indigenous Engagement

  • We have an Indigenous Participation Plan that describes the opportunity MASG presents to positively impact Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, businesses and communities. The plan sets out how the project aims to develop a diverse and inclusive workforce and supply chain by increasing Aboriginal participation through targeted programs

Philanthropy

As Supporting Partners of Red Kite (Australia’s leading childhood cancer support charity) we provide financial support to RedKite which is distributed towards their most urgent areas. These are funds for families under financial strain as a result of their child being diagnosed with cancer, bereavement and counselling support or programs such as music therapy delivered at hospital.

With a calendar of activations that MASG and Red Kite share, the MASG staff also participate in volunteering opportunities as well as ongoing fundraising activities for Red Kite.
